Hi,
I have an XL sheet which tracks my regular monthly and annual (one-off payment) expenses. (see below).
For monthly costs (eg. Electricity) i need a formula to enter the £42.00 in each of the corresponding months between the start/end dates (F2 to I2)
However, if the expense is a one-off annual payment, (i.e. the Monthly cost column is blank, e.g. Car insurance), I want the formula to place the corresponding cost only once in the corresponding month that the annual payment occured/will occur. In the case of car insurance, the £500 should appear once only in the Jan 2016 column (H4).
I have seen may forum posts that show the correct formula for spreading an annual cost over the period of a start /stop date (for instance if a cost of £12,000 was to be evenly spread out as 12*£1000 costs from Jan - Dec), but I have not seen any posts regarding my issue?
Hope someone can help?
Many thanks
Indy
